Chapter 360 Red Card
Lannick intends to strictly guard against death and survive the last period of time.

It wasn't that he was conservative, but the reality made him think that this was the best choice. Hoffenheim's offense could not force Fiorentina to focus on defense. Fewer offensive players would have no effect. If there were too many offensive players, there would be loopholes in the backcourt. It is better to defend with all members and survive the last [-] minutes.

As long as the opponent is not allowed to score two goals, then the victory will belong to Hoffenheim.

Vosa came on and replaced Eduardo. At the same time, Ibisevic was in front to harass the opponent's offense. Long Bisheng returned to the midfield to defend.

Although Vosa appeared to be frizzy when he replaced Gustavo, his physical fitness and running ability are quite good. He can complement Gustavo and increase the thickness of the front of the penalty area. At the same time, his height can also play an advantage in the penalty area.

Fiorentina attacked, attacked, and then attacked, while Hoffenheim defended, defended, and then defended. All the players completely forgot the time and just wanted to achieve their goals with all their strength.

No.70 In the second minute, Jovetic took the ball and forced a breakthrough, got away from Li Jie's side, and then immediately volleyed. The ball was blocked by Hildebrand.

In the 704th minute, Montolivo sent a diagonal pass from the center. Marchionne made a breakthrough and made a cross. Gilardino headed for the goal and was blocked by Comper.

No. In the 705th minute, Li Fang scored the ball to the middle, and Donadell, who was plugged in, took a long shot 30 meters away from the goal. The ball was blocked by Long Bisheng, who returned to the defense.

In the 708th minute, Baker was defending with a handball. Fiorentina got a free kick 30 meters away from the right side of the penalty area. Li Fang lobbed the ball into the penalty area and assisted Dainelli who stepped forward to grab a point and shake his head.

As time passed, Lannick became more and more composed, while Prandelli became more irritable.

He made a second substitution, with full-back Quaspar coming on for Marchionne and Peruvian defender Vargas stepping up to play left-winger.But Rangnick did not make a substitution. The players on the field are performing very well. Rather than causing chaos on the field due to the substitution at this time, it is better to save the substitution until the end to pass the time.

Prandelli raised his face, folded his hands, and looked at the court blankly.

Fiorentina's offense became more and more frenzied, but Rangnick was not too worried. If the guess is correct, this is Fiorentina's last dying struggle. If they fail to score in the next few minutes, then Fiorentina's collapse will be in sight.

At this time, Vargas, who stepped into the frontcourt, got the ball.

Baker pushed forward cautiously, and at the same time Marin also returned to defense. They knew that Vargas was a full-back with strong assisting ability, and he could also play as a full-back. Prandelli put him in the midfield position at this time, probably to give play to his breakthrough ability.

But Vargas did not break through, but took a few steps forward and passed it to Jovetic in the middle. Seeing Gustavo pushing up, Jovetic did not force a breakthrough, but swiped the ball horizontally and passed it to Montolivo who came up from behind.

"Be careful with his long shots!" Hildebrand, who saw Montolivo raised his foot and saved his very threatening long shot not long ago, shouted loudly.

Vosa rushed forward bravely, preparing to block Montolivo's shot with his body, but being too brave on the court often means that he has no brains-he pounced too hard. Although Montolivo is not a top star in Italy, his technique is quite excellent. With just a light stop and dunk, he easily dodges Vosa who pounced too hard!

"Damn it! Block him!" Hildebrand yelled loudly. Salihovic rushed to the center to defend Montolivo's advance, but the former member of the Italian National Youth Team made an extremely sharp pass. The ball landed accurately at the feet of Li Fang who inserted into the penalty area from the corner of the penalty area!

Simunić was about to take the risk of shoveling the ball down, but Li Fang made a cross at the first time, a short-distance cross that was not far away!

The ball drew an arc and flew straight to the back point. At this moment, Gilardino, who had disappeared for almost half of the field, appeared at the back point. With a sprint, Comper was left behind, and before everyone could react, he made a diving header to the top!
Just as Hildebrand turned around, he saw that the ball had flown into the goal without hindrance...

There was a sudden burst of cheers from the stands at the Frankie Stadium. Although this goal was not enough to make them escape, it could give them hope!
Gilardino rushed into the goal and wanted to take the ball out and run back. For this reason, he almost had a conflict with Hildebrand. Hildebrand grabbed the ball first and refused to give it to him so quickly...

"Damn! Why did you ignore Gilardino!" Rangnick cursed angrily. He was not scolding the players, but his own negligence. How could he ignore Gilardino because of his temporary silence?You must know that such a shooter may be able to catch as long as there is one chance in the whole game!
If it was Li Jie who was marking Gilardino, with his reaction, Gilardino might not be able to get rid of Li Jie who was marking him so easily!

But since the matter has already happened, it doesn't make much sense to pursue it again. This conceded goal is not important, but it is precisely because of this goal that Florence's already exhausted fighting spirit began to burn again!

Prand used up the last substitution in his hand, a striker replaced a defender, and Fiorentina's formation changed from the initial four-five-one to the current three-four-three!
Crazy move!
But what Florence needs now is such a crazy move!Only in this way can they inspire their final fighting spirit!At the last moment of the game, the fight is perseverance!
Two minutes after Fiorentina's substitution, Rangnick also made his second substitution of the game. Nilsson replaced Marin, and Rangnick continued to add defenders!
Hoffenheim began to use the ugliest football to deal with Fiorentina's onslaught. There were five defenders, four midfielders, and even the only forward, Long Bisheng, returned to the penalty area and used his height to help defend. Except for Salihovic who can use his personal skills to dribble the ball to ease the pressure of the opponent's attack, Hoffenheim has no ability to counterattack.

Lannick did a great job, not only to others, but also to himself.

With Hoffenheim's current staffing on the field, if the score is exceeded by Fiorentina, then they will no longer have any counterattack power.

Rangnick is betting that Hoffenheim will be able to defend Fiorentina's offense and will not be scored by Fiorentina in the remaining time. As long as Fiorentina can't do this before the final whistle, then the victory belongs to Hoffenheim.

As for whether he will be criticized for being conservative by others after the game, Lannick doesn't care at all, winners and losers, only the winners can enjoy the fun of victory.

Fiorentina used all their methods to attack, such as wing breakthroughs, long shots, top rushes, through balls, long passes... But Hoffenheim, who was determined to guard against the defense, kept the penalty area airtight, so that all of Fiorentina's methods could only scratch the itch, unable to pose a substantial threat to the goal.

In this case, if Fiorentina wants to score, in addition to counting on Hoffenheim to make a mistake in defense, then only set kicks are left!
"beep--"

The game entered stoppage time. Fiorentina's midfielder broke through Hoffenheim's midfielder after a series of wonderful short passes. Jovetic with the ball had rushed to the top of the arc.
"I didn't foul!" Seeing that Jovetic fell directly into the penalty area, Long Bisheng immediately jumped up and shouted with his hands raised, but the referee's whistle had already sounded, foul!Free kick!

"I really didn't foul!" Long Bisheng jumped up and shouted. He knew how threatening the free kick in this place was, and how excellent Li Fang's free kick was. More importantly, he really didn't foul. Jovetic hung his foot up by himself.

Seeing that the referee didn't respond, Long Bisheng was in a hurry, grabbed Jovetic who had just got up from the ground, and yelled at him: "What do you mean? Did I foul just now? You bumped into it yourself, you liar!"

"Bisheng! What are you doing! Let go! Do you want to be punished?" Li Fang, who was closest to him, was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled Long Bisheng's hand away. Long Bisheng calmed down a bit, but it was too late.

There was loud shouting and cursing from the stands, and the referee also noticed what happened here. He walked over with a straight face, and even though the Hoffenheim players stopped him, he still took out a yellow card from his pocket, flashed Long Bisheng's eyes, and then drew out a red card!
Long Bisheng had already received a yellow card in the previous game!

Long Bisheng was taken aback for a moment, and then a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth—he had already realized that he was indeed too impatient just now, although the opponent was flopping, but what's the point of questioning him at this time?

At this time, he heard Li Fang sigh, then let go of Long Bisheng's hand, and patted him on the back.

"Young people, it's still easy to be impulsive, there's no need..." Li Fang sighed in his heart, completely forgetting that he was such a stunned young man before, and he received a lot of red and yellow cards for this.

Long Bisheng walked off the court with his head down, said sorry to Lannick in a low voice, and then walked into the locker room. Two concerned eyes fell on him at the same time, one from the bench and the other from the court.
